PRASAT BOS REAM
A curious site lying in the forest a short distance north of Prasat Sandan and consisting of 7 east-facing brick mounds aligned in a diagonal from NNE to SSW. There's little to be seen today, apart from earthen mounds covered in bushes, but the site must have originally been an impressive one. A man-made pond is situated to the north although no remains can be seen of any enclosing wall. It certainly seems unusual that out of the 7 presumed shrines, nothing at all remains today except a few courses of bricks.
